5055 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Anecdotal N/A American bullfrogs, Lithobates catesbeianus, compete with the critically endangered San Francisco garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis tetrataenia, for prey resources. Competition is due to seasonal diet overlaps. San Francisco, California 37684
5059 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Anecdotal N/A American bullfrogs, Lithobates catesbeianus, tadpoles and adults are often the dominant amphibian competitors in freshwater communities due to their large size and voracious behavior. 37688
5063 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Experimental Field Bullfrog Lithobates catesbeianus larvae may compete with other synoptic tadpoles for shared algal resources. California 37700
5064 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Experimental Field California red-legged frog tadpoles, Rana draytonii, altered activity in response to chemical cues from invasive American bullfrogs, Lithobates catesbeianus. Tadpoles reduced foraging and swimming early in development. California 37700

5202 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Anecdotal N/A Bullfrog, Lithobates catesbeianus, can create acoustic interference with other frog calls. not specified 37939
5314 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Anecdotal N/A Through competition, predation, and disease transmission Lithobates catesbianus poses a threat to 13 species of native anurans in South Korea. South Korea 38235
5444 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Experimental Field Red legged frogs Rana draytonii from populations with Lithobates catesbeianus had lower survival rates than allopatric populations. central California 37699
5501 Lithobates catesbeianus Competition Observational Field American bullfrogs, Lithobates catesbeianus, compete against the invasive red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, in its non-native range in Italy. Central Italy 37709
